Life in Ancient Rome
Most Romans ate a light breakfast and little food during the day. They would
then have a large dinner. Dinner was a major event starting at around three in
the afternoon. They would lie on their sides on a couch and be served by the
servants. They ate with their hands and would rinse their hands often in water
during the meal.
Typical food would have been bread, beans, fish, vegetables, cheese, and dried
fruit. They ate little meat. The rich would have had a variety of foods in fancy
sauces. How the food looked was just as important as the taste. Some of the
food they ate would seem very strange to us, such as mice and peacock tongues.
The toga was a long robe made up of several yards of material. The wealthy wore
white togas made from wool or linen. Some colors and markings on togas were
reserved for certain people and certain occasions. For example, a toga with a
purple border was worn by high-ranking senators and consuls, while a black toga
was generally only worn during times of mourning. The toga was uncomfortable
and hard to wear and was generally only worn in public, not around the house. In
later years, the toga grew out of style and most people wore a tunic with a cloak
when it was cold. They were the regular dress of the poor.
